Goal:

The goal of "toaster" is to energize the group and promote teamwork through quick thinking and creative expression in a fun and engaging way.

Description:

"Toaster" is a dynamic and interactive game where participants quickly form different figures based on prompts given by the game leader. It encourages creativity, quick reflexes, and cooperation, as participants must work together to create each figure.


Instruction
Step 1:

All participants form a large circle. One person volunteers or is chosen to be the leader in the center of the circle.

Step 2:

The leader points to any individual in the circle. The chosen person, along with their immediate neighbors, must quickly form a specific figure.

Step 3:

The figures they may be asked to form include:

• Toaster: The middle person jumps up like toast popping up, while the neighbors join hands over them, creating the toaster. The center person yells, "Ding, ding, ding!"

• Elephant: The chosen middle person forms a trunk by holding their nose with one hand and extending the other arm out straight. The neighbors form large ears with their hands next to the head of the middle person and make elephant sounds.

• Mixer: The middle person holds their arms up over the heads of their neighbors, who spin around in place.

• Washing Machine: The neighbors join hands to form a circle around the middle person, who spins and makes washing machine noises.

• James Bond: The middle person mimics holding a gun and aiming, while the neighbors look on adoringly, saying, "Oh, James!"

Step 4:

If a participant performs the figure incorrectly or reacts too slowly, they are eliminated from the circle.

Step 5:

Continue the game, eliminating participants until a predetermined number of rounds are completed, or until only a few participants remain.


Additional tips:

• Ensure the game moves swiftly to maintain high energy and engagement.

• Encourage participants to perform loudly and enthusiastically to enhance the fun.

• Be aware of the space and ensure that all movements are safe and considerate of others.

• Explore new possibilities - there are many possible figures for this game, so you can add your own!
